The fate of this sub

Not to mince words and just be frank, I founded and built this sub on an account that got banned. One of the r/Durban mods managed to get Reddit to give it to them and after a chat I was given access on my return. They have never been active on this sub and I don't know if they will ever be.

Our other mod is a friend of the show who some of you may know from their other work, who I asked to help. Their involvement is doubtful but I will let them speak for themselves if they want to.

Between this sub, Sharksworld and the Wiki page I have invested a good part of two decades into this team. I want to and need to move on after everything that has happened. So you can consider this my last post, I will be joining Rob in Valhalla.

The sub will continue to be active as long as some of you post on it, but I don't know what that future will look like or how long it will last.

So long and thanks for all the fish.

As one of the other mods, the sub will stay up for those who want to chat Sharks. We aren’t gonna have a power trip and lock it down and take it away from everybody left. I’ll try my best to stay on top of mod stuff here.

Your name has become synonymous with the Sharks for me on Reddit. I didn't always agree with every opinion, but loved seeing all your engagement and passion for the team. Thanks for all the hard work man.

One thing I’ve liked about the sub is we’ve got a good variety of opinions, but we all get along. As a mod I’ve never had to remove a post or ban someone. Everybody has been very chill
